Case Study: Lantronix OOB solutions enhance secure automation of critical banking infrastructure

IRVINE, Calif., April 18, 2024 — Lantronix Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRX), a global provider of compute and connectivity IoT solutions announced that it published today its case study focusing on deployment of its Out-of-Band (OOB) solutions and accompanying Level Technical Services by a leading financial services company. This large global entity has a complex IT infrastructure that includes highly distributed mission-critical servers at data centers worldwide.

“Lantronix OOB allowed the IT teams to access and manage servers that are on the SWIFT network while ensuring compliance with strict security standards,” said Jacques Issa, VP of Marketing for Lantronix. “A key part of this solution includes encrypted access to remote servers with detailed logging, monitoring, and reporting.”

By 2025, Gartner predicts 75% of enterprise-generated data will be created and processed outside a traditional data center or cloud. As the move to Edge computing accelerates, data centers are getting decentralized and OOB management helps improve Enterprise network resiliency as well as uptime while keeping IT costs low and streamlining security processes. The Edge Computing Market size is estimated at USD 15.59 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 32.19 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 15.60% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Solution: Lantronix LM83X Console Servers With Control Center

With unique, dedicated Ethernet connections, Lantronix’s LM38X console servers are used to connect to baseboard management (lights-out) ports to enable primary functions, such as powering on and off the servers. This connection is isolated, allowing no access to these ports except through Lantronix by admins who have logged in using multifactor authentication and have appropriate rights to access the ports, all while logging the session for audit. Virtual ports allow server guests OS access available only to the LM83X IP address. The console servers are managed by Lantronix Control Center, which provides a centralized point of control. The bank utilizes Lantronix’s Level Technical Services for trusted 24/7 tech support and collaboration.
